nesting or resting?



i guess i get the two of those things a little confused! i have feet the size of an elephant and i should be propped somewhere with my feet touching the sky above my heart, but do i do that? it lasts about 20 minutes, until i have to get up and do something my own self. that has just how this whole pregnancy has been, and i wouldn't know it any other way.

i don't have an amazing easter post filled with pretty little things i've made, eggs i dyed, or the goodies i found... but in preparation of the family that was going to be coming to town i did do a little last minute nesting.



i have been wanting to make a wreath for a while. of course you see the really cute ones on pinterest and i have just kept them in mind when i go to the craft stores. i finally walked by the tubing for a wreath, bought it, and definitely didn't come home straight away to work on it. however, about 3 weeks later.... i did. :)

i am not that great at reading directions i follow, but i do always use visuals.
here is how the flowers were made... i figure the rest of self explanatory.




i cut fabric into a "thick ribbon" to wrap around the wreath base. about 2 1/2 inches thick. used glue gone to hold ends in place.
the bunting was just triangles hot glued onto a thin strip of felt.
i hot glued the flowers in place as well.
ribbon tied on top to hang.
